Question

Sean's party will cost $60 if he invites 12 guests. Which expression does NOT equal the amount that Sean will spend per party guest in dollars?

Answer 1

Options :

A) 12⟌60

B) 60 ÷ 12

C) 60⟌12

Answer:

C) 60⟌12

Explanation:

Given that :

Total cost of inviting 12 guests to a party = $60

To obtain the cost per guest :

Total cost of invitation / number of guests

That is ; we divide the cost of inviting the guests by the number of guests invited

$60 / 12 = 12⟌60

The expression 60⟌12 is incorrect as this means 12 / $60
